Line quoted by De Quincey

"S.P.S." (No. 22. p. 351.) is informed that "With battlements that on their restless fronts Bore stars"... is a passage taken from a gorgeous description of "Cloudland" by Wordsworth, which occurs near the end of the second book of the Excursion. The opium-eater gives a long extract, as "S.P.S." probably remembers.
